By kit does this mean K3-style solderless or old-school K1, K2, KX1 style?

Way less than that for both the kit and build versions. We haven't set
the final price yet, but the kit version should come in about $1995.

What does catch my eye is the linear regulated 12V 'wall wart' they offer.
Like to have one of those for hotel-room portable with my KX1.

You can use the same port for PTT and control but use must use a separate
port for FSK keying.

You can also buy from QRP Project in Germany if you want to avoid the high
shipping costs from the USA. I think German VAT is now cheaper than ours.
The built K3s are I think professionally assembled in Germany from kits.
It's a bit hard to find pricing on that website, though.

Check to see whether both VFOs were not only in the same band, but also

Bob,
The spikes you are seeing in the ALC circuit are normal, and are not
associated with any problem you may be having.
Is the variation in power observed when you press the TUNE button? If
so, that is normal too. The level is not controlled as tightly in TUNE
as it is with normal keying
Yes, two wire jumpers are needed. One between CB J1 pin 1 and J2 pin
1 - the other between J1 pin 2 and J2 pin 2. The original jumpers were
soldered, but component leads bent ans stuck into the J1 and J2 headers
will work quite nicely.

Bob,
One thing that I failed to add, and might be a concern to you at first.
It is normal for the K2 to take 2 to 3 dit times to come up to the full
requested power after a change in the power knob setting, a change in
bands or a power on.

Thank you for your suggestions. It sure is hard to debug circuits that have

Bob,
I would not be concerned about the slightly higher current draw. Change
CAL CUR to 3.50 and you should have no problems. If you add the KPA100
you will need to increase the setting to 3.50 amps anyway, so do it
now. Despite the manual recommendations, many current K2s require more
